75% Hydration White Sourdough Loaf

Ingredients

200g Rye Sourdough Starter (100% hydration)

400g Strong White Flour

275ml Water

1 tsp Salt

1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Method

Mix the ingredients in a bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Leave to rest for 30 minutes.

Repeatedly stretch the dough until silky smooth, approximately 10 minutes. Leave to rest for approximately 6-8 hours, folding the dough 4 times every half an hour.

Shape the dough and leave to rest in an oval banneton for 8-10 hours, or overnight. Score and bake at 230C until golden brown.

Tip: Add steam to your oven for the first 10 minutes to help the bread rise.
